Organization

The Italian Coast Guard (ITCG - Corpo delle Capitanerie di Porto - Guardia Costiera) is the National Maritime Authority, an administrative, governmental and policing body, with a military status. The ITCG functionally mainly depends on Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport - the National Maritime Administration - which ensures the relevant budget. The ITCG carries out tasks and duties on behalf of different Ministries and other national Authorities. This makes the Italian Coast Guard the reference point both for the sea users and for sea-related activities.
